7:03 pm
today, the president's team playing the expectations game, giving romney the edge in those debates. >> and mitt romney, i think, has an advantage because he's been through 20 of these debates in the primaries over the last year. and he even bragged that he was declared the winner in 16 of those debates and i so, i think in that sense, having been through this much more recently than president obama, i think he starts with an advantage. >> and the polls show obama leading by a few points in many of the swing states though many are within the margin of error and the race could tighten further, harris. >> and now let's go to libya and the terror attack on the u.s. consulate that killed four americans. new details coming out showing the terrorists behind the assault may have known a lot more than previously thought. and here is what we know so far. the attack appears to have been coordinated well in advance and likely carried out as part after joint operation between two groups, the fbi, looking into whether it was an

americans, libya's president, ordered all rogue, unregistered militias to disband by tuesday. and civilian protesters angry over the attack on the u.s. consulate stormed the militia compound and set fire to some of the buildings and remember, we showed you that on fox report last night. we're told if the militias do not comply with the libyan president's order, the libyan army will use force to take them out. our greg palkot is in libya streaming live now from the the capital city of tripoli. greg, how real is this militia crackdown and how significant? >> harris, so far it seems to be working and authorities tell us here in tripoli, for example, today authorities, security forces round out the rogue militia from one base and comes back to the dramatic scenes we've been seeing earlier this week from the eastern libyan city of benghazi and storming the compounds here and this is what many people have wanted after helping to topple gaddafi last year, and some of these militants, some of these
7:07 pm
islamic have stayed in power and capped off the force with attack on the u.s. consulate and some have remained and skeptical about the and think it might be a trick by the militants and maybe a tactical retreat. >> how has it had an impact on the consulate. >> the fallout could be good for the investigation into the killing, the word we're getting tonight from benghazi, things are calm there and authorities are in control. the fbi team, which is come into this country, in tripoli, this might now allow them to get over to benghazi and the crime scene. still, it remains that suspects might simply scatter. for example, fox news quoting intelligence sources last week, a militant with al-qaeda ties, could have played a major role in the killing of
7:08 pm
the ambassador. and the head of a militia in one eastern libyan city, that militia disbanded this weekend and militia members have fled. >> harris: so, greg, we know how the libyan citizens are expressing how they feel about the militias, what is their opinion of us, the americans in their country? >> well, we heard in that rally on friday, in benghazi, and led to the storm of the compound some real support for american sorrow for the loss of the ambassador and i have heard that and we have he heard that on the street from the libyans in the past couple of days. the problem is, what people are watching is, if and when the u.s. decides possibly to take some more aggressive action in this country against those thought to be responsible for the killing of ambassador stevens and others, there could be some fallout from that. some flashback from that, back to you, harris. >> more to come on this, greg palkot on the job for us in that country, libya, greg,

>> americans love to shop. consumer spending makes up a
7:13 pm
whop two-thirds of our economy and that's why wall street will be watching closely this week. when the latest consumer spending numbers are released, it's just one of several important indications due out this week that could provide a valuable look at health, the true health of the economy and it could also shake up your 401(k). senior business correspondent and anchor of bulls and bears, brenda buttner has more. >> harris, what's the health of the economy this week? we find out by looking at you. reports on your confidence and what you are doing with your wallet are the big numbers out. really big. >> and consumer spending makes up two-thirds of all economic activity. so what you take out of your pocket terms how fast the economy will take off. most predictions are, you're still cautious and not all that confident, and consumer spending forecasts predict americans likely increase purchases by about 1/2 a percent in august. now, normally it's not a horrible number, but the headline high is a darker picture. much of that was publicly spent at the pump and gas
7:14 pm
prices spiked last month and that kind of spending doesn't do much for the economy. and also spending is expected to outpace income growth, as it has for some time. so you're probably taking the extra bucks out of savings. going deeper in debt. and wall street is certainly watching all of this. the bull taking a bit after breather last week, the broad market the one most likely in your 401(k), fell. reports on housing could help give the bulls a boost. the prices expected to bounce off the the bottom and sales could be up, too. all of which makes you feel a little wealthier. but, we likely need more than a floor on the housing market to keep the markets in rally mode, as uncertainty goes up with the election drawing near. harris, back to you. >> harris: brenda, thank you very much. some 1,000 pastors nationwide are preparing to deliver a sermon the irs may not want to hear. they're trying to draw attention to a 1954 tax code that prohibits tax exempt organizations like churches
